Crimes West Deptford Criminal Defense Lawyer John B. Brennan Can Help You Overcome
The Law Office of John B. Brennan handles a wide range of crimes, ranging from serious felonies to minor disorderly persons offenses. Some of these crimes come with fines of thousands of dollars and potential jail time. Some come with these as well as additional penalties such as license revocations, probation, the loss of voting rights, movement restrictions, and other limitations on what you can and cannot do. These restrictions can turn your life around in an instant and have long-term impacts on you, your family, and your loved ones.
Whatever legal challenges you may have and whatever the specifics of your criminal case, we are here to help. Criminal cases we routinely help our clients with include the following.
Theft, Burglary, and Robbery
Theft takes many forms, from stealing someone’s intellectual property, robbing a store, and identity theft, tax evasion, and money laundering. Fraud and forgery are also crimes, and some crimes come with the use of force or weapons which can raise the stakes for the accused.
Violent Crimes
Domestic abuse, aggravated assault 2C:12-1, sexual assault 2C:14-2, kidnapping 2C:13-1, murder 2C:11-3, and arson 2C:17-1 are examples of violent crimes. Some of these crimes can involve property damage as well. Depending on the specifics of your case, violent crimes can come with years of jail time and the lifelong stigma of a conviction. We can defend against some of these charges, such as assault, by showing that you had a legitimate fear for your well-being or were forced to defend yourself when the crime in question was committed.
Cyber and Non-Physical Crimes
Intimidation, harassment, blackmail, stalking, and cybercrimes all carry serious charges. The law is deliberately specific when it comes to these crimes because the accused must be found guilty beyond the shadow of a doubt for a conviction. As a result, there are many ways we can cast doubt that you were guilty or that a crime was even committed.
Other crimes we can defend you for include:
- Controlled substance crimes such as producing, transporting, or distributing controlled or illegal substances
- Traffic violations such as speeding or driving under the influence
- Sex crimes such as online soliciting, prostitution, assault, and crimes involving pornography.
Strategies that Can Help Win Your Case
Based on the nature of the crime in question and the evidence that the prosecution has against you, there are many strategies we can use to defend you, such as:
- Proving you were not arrested or charged legally.
- Proving that the evidence against you was obtained legally.
- Showing that the charges levied against you are unfair.
- Disproving, weakening, or casting into doubt the evidence or any claims that have been made against you.
- Showing that you are outright innocent using witness statements or other evidence.
- Working with the court and aggrieved parties – if applicable – toward reconciliation and/or a settlement.
Regardless of how strong or weak your case is, we will always fight for your best interests to the full extent of the law. This starts from the day we provide our free consultation through to court representation and the final resolution of your case. With our experience, knowledge of the law, and intricate understanding of how prosecutions build cases and defend their claims, we can cast doubt on the validity of their arguments, the relevance of their claims, and the integrity of other evidence obtained against you.
